Hello, the name is Gabe and I am currently in Oakland.
I came by the site on a Google search and thought I'd register.
I am by no means proficient in Taoist philosphy nor do I practice a set of exercises other than those I have devised myself.
However, when I was about 12 I read the TTC and was in awe of the images and concepts that arose in my mind which have since affected my outlook and view on existence.
I look forward to learning more in-depth studies of the philosophy and hopefully I can contribute to the site as well.
*edit - I forgot to mention that I am a 26 year old student.
